Forrest Gump-John Escott

ნაწყვეტი წიგნიდან:

I was born an idiot - but I'm cleverer than people think. I can think things

OK, but when I have to say them or write them down, sometimes they

come out all wrong. When I was born, my Mom named me Forrest. My

daddy died just after I was born. He worked on the ships. One day a big

box of bananas fell down on my daddy and killed him.

I don't like bananas much. Only banana cake. I like that all right.

At first when I was growing up, I played with everybody. But then some

boys hit me, and my Mom didn't want me to play with them again. I tried

to play with girls, but they all ran away from me.
